Unforgiven Japanese Remake Trailer

The first trailer has arrived for director Sang-il Lee's Unforgiven, based on Clint Eastwood's 1992 Academy Award-winning best picture of the same name. Ken Watanabe stars in this Japanese Western remake, with the action now set in late 1800′s Hokkaido. A long retired samurai is drawn back into action by the combination of poverty and a large bounty, at a time when Japan largely abandons the old ways to adopt a more modern stance. Check out this first look, along with a poster and a photo.
